5 “bad” foods you should be eating

Nicci asks: What food myth have you bought into?

Milk, which was always know as the perfect food is now being treated as a bad food because of the fat content and the milk sugar (lactose). Many people are considered to be lactose intolerant and sometimes I wonder whether this happens because of the adverse effects created by the antibiotics given to cattle. I never encountered this in my early years and I can't recall children (or adults) having such intolerance.Is this myth or fact?

I was told lard cakes are bad for you. I have been eating fried lard cakes for over 40 years. I have had (2) heart attacks + a stroke, but can still work to the bathroom. Not bad for a forty four year old man.

Nicci--I see you have bought into the egg myth that the yolk is bad for you. Wake up! The yolk is what contains the sulpher which binds to toxins and heavy metals and then removed from our bodies. The whole egg is perfect food.
